Today’s Good News Second Precinct Officer William Bingham recently picked up information about a man wanted for nine felonies. He researched who the man’s friends and family were, where they lived and then went out looking for him in those areas. At one house, he left his cell phone number, asking that the wanted man call him if he came by. A few hours later, the wanted man called Officer Bingham and they arranged for an in-person chat. Before they met, Officer Bingham discovered the man was actually wanted for 19 felony warrants and took him into custody without incident. “He did some bad stuff,” Bingham said. “He needs to get off the street because he would have continued doing what he was doing.”
